Old favorite and standby: Bigelow Plantation Mint
A new favorite: Revolution Southern Mint (very strong...enough to clear your sinuses!)...I just had this for the first time last night...Good Stuff!
My parents would love this survey...they look to tea as a medicinal cure-all...got a headache? Have a cup o' tea! An ingrown toenail? You need a cup o' tea! Tired, ugly, tooth decay, etc., etc., etc. - a cup of tea is what you need! Just an ordinary day or a celebration? Have a cup of tea! Once I was choking on a piece of chicken or meat or something, and, at the same time, both parents exclaimed..."You need a cup of tea!"
I guess there is lots of wisdom in that, though...you can't beat a good cup of tea!
When I have different ailments I use different herbal teas to help me feel better.
I very rarely drink tea as I'm really a coffee junkie but my wife Ann likes me to buy her the Twining's teas. Earl Grey, Lady Grey and English Breakfast are her three favourites from the Twining's range.

As the old Chinese proverb goes, "Drinking a daily cup of tea will surely starve the apothecary."
And as the late, great C. S. Lewis said, "You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me."
Of note: Although I've only made small purchases from them I have received excellent customer service by phone and by email. I was glad to find if not a local, at least an in-state shop to deal with. They carry much more than is listed at the site, just phone them up if you have questions. I most recently bought a pair of black wool Locharron hose that I needed quickly and they got them to me right away.
I like Stash Earl Grey if I'm drinking a hot tea. Most of the time however, I drink iced tea. I'll confess, though I'm sure it'll make the purists go right up the wall and turn left, that I use just generic brand orange pekoe tea bags for the vast majority of my tea. I can go through about 2 gallons in a day easy when I'm in a tea drinking mood.
EDIT TO ADD: Doggone it, now you've done it. I'm off to the kitchen to brew up a couple of quarts of tea.
